Thought I'd re-post it since the other one was back in Christmas time.

Here's my Current Setup I call it Blurred Life.

-Auto Updates to what ever song is playing in Media Monkey
-Auto Updates my Twitter so I can stay updated
-Auto Updates My Weather
-Auto Updates My Gmail ( That Mail Icon )
-Auto Updates my Ram,HD,CPU,and Tempature.
-GDI Hack so my fonts render in Mac OSX format.

This is how it normally looks in Normal Usage.

This is the only way I can stay productive with everything minimized and in my view..

Resource Hacked Firefox, Title Bar Tweaks, Menus Toolbar gone, Personal Menu, Title Bar hacked so it only shows the Website & not the Firefox Version.

MouseLeaveAction=!execute [!RainmeterShowMeter Feed8][!RainmeterHideMeter Link8][!RainmeterRedraw]
LeftMouseDownAction=[MeasureLink8]

[Feed9]

You be lurkin the torrents I see... But yeah I run Windows XP, Windows XP, and Ubuntu on my three systems. I want to convert one of them to W7 but i'll probably end up waiting until it's released. I beta tested Vista though.

L0c0 · 07-03-2009, 03:37 PM

Adjust you know your shyt. If i get stuck on sumthin i mite have to bother you for help lol.
I'm on vista now, should i stick with that or go with windows 7 or anything else?

I say stick it out until W7 is officially released. Yeah I'm not afraid to admit i'm a computer nerd I been studying and learning isshh all day everyday.

AnArtofWar · 07-03-2009, 03:51 PM

Vista does not suck. It's actually a really good OS people just didn't have computers ready to run it. It was a huge upstep from XP, and people had to much pride to admit it was good after destroying it.

L0c0 · 07-03-2009, 04:06 PM

can all these programs and the programs in your online security thread be used with windows 7?

Um idk I don't have Windows 7.. But it should...

AnArtofWar · 07-03-2009, 04:22 PM

No vista sucks. It's glitchy...and it requires so much extra power compared to XP..it's a half assed windows 7.

L0c0 · 07-03-2009, 04:25 PM

Windows 7 came out 3 years later of course it's gone be better. And no **** it required more than XP it came out later and people should have upgraded their hard ware. I ran it on 4GB of Ram and a 3.06GHz computer and it ran damn near perfect, and when I upped my ram to 6gb it ran even better.

AnArtofWar · 07-03-2009, 04:59 PM

Vista was half assed. That is the point. Windows 7 is vista 2.0 it is faster, looks a bit better and it isn't glitchy

Windows 7 is only faster because your hardware has been upgraded & the speed is normally placebo. I can find articles to back up that is pretty much placebo speed. Vista was not glitchy Sp1 made vista damn near perfect. Don't try to argue with me over computers you'll just sound ignorant uniformed and hard-headed.
